Ai has been studying yoga since 1996 and teaching since 2002. She has studied various methods of yoga, including  Anusara, Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Forrest.  Ai offers a space for students to move through the physical and mental limitations that have become habitual. Her classes challenge the boundaries of the students, but are safe and empowering as they learn how to align body, breath and mind.  Students often quote her teaching as “calm, focused, exquisitely clear and precise about her language, while remaining grounded and slow and peaceful.”  When she is not on a yoga mat, she works as an epidemiologist trying to find causes of cancer and cancer-related conditions.  She is interested in integrating both of her passions (yoga and science) to demonstrate how yoga helps the health of our body and mind scientifically.

Originally from a suburb town of Corpus Christi, TX, Jeremiah found yoga early in 2004 by taking a kinesiology course in college, and just never quit.  Even after the course, he continued to practice on his own at home, taking the occasional class at school, and referring to his first yoga text book (Yoga the Iyengar Way) for little tips.  Upon moving to Austin in 2006, he began practicing at a local studio and instantly found that there was a whole new exciting depth to yoga that he had never felt before.  He began teacher training in early 2007 and has been teaching ever since.

Jeremiah’s roots in yoga are in the Iyengar method and he still greatly calls upon the method to inform his practice, study, and teaching of Anusara yoga.  He has taught along the lines of Anusara yoga since he began teaching, and is actively pursuing his Anusara certification.  Jeremiah finds this practice to be a constant process of learning and understanding. It is for the sake of living life more knowledgably, harmoniously, and happily with oneself and others.  Jeremiah’s classes are geared toward personal discovery, through focused physical and mental attention, and always remembering our individual intrinsic beauty.

Jeremiah holds a degree in Theatre and is an Anusara-Inspired™ Yoga teacher.
